Often times it seems as though taking the slogan of Nike and Just Doing It, is all you need to become an artist. I know there's been times when we skeptically glance at a piece of art, saying to ourselves, "Damn I bet I can make some abstract scribbles and sell it for thousands too!" While I do not negate the creativity and brilliance of artists who create memorable and lasting works, I do think that the barrier to entry is extraordinarily low to become an artist. Just create something, anything. Whether a poem or a painting, a picture or a post, any creation can touch someone. Robert understands. His work speaks to anyone eager to create. If you've got an idea run with it.
